One of the major challenge for blogspot users , generally is, Glo not opening blogspot or blogger.

What can be more frustrating than your blog not able to open using glo network? This really will get visitors who uses glo as their network provider bored and may not even want to visit your site again. It may increase bounce rate.

Amongst other top telecommunication network in Nigeria (MTN, Airtel, Etisalat etc)Glo network is one of the largest telecommunication network in Nigeria with millions of subscribers.

It’s a homemade network. However, Glo offers large chunk of data. Their more data subscription than other networks in Nigeria made them to establish the moniker, “Grand Master of data.” when it comes to the volume of data subscription,unlike every other network provider around.

Glo remains a force to reckon with as far as Mobile Internet is concerned in Nigeria, therefore it behoves me to say that getting traffic from its users is a big win. It is very important. Why did I say so? You will agree with me that nothing is as bad when it comes to Blogging as losing visitors,readers/users to a network not opening your blog pages.

Do you know also that chances are big that you can be losing traffic if your blog fails to open on a certain network service provider? Now, you know what am talking about.

I remember vividly, I faced this same issue. When i started Blogging (using the google hosted domain) there was no issue with opening the blog with glo network. Meaning while i was still using blogspot.com i didn’t experience this for any day.

Traffics began to drop down drastically after getting a custom domain. It became an eyesore to me, that i had to call glo customer care while also making researches on how to overcome this.

However, in the long run glo could not provide answer to the issue. They were not able to profer solution. I became worrier than before.

Note,  bloggers that face this kind of problem (Glo not opening Blogspot) are those that have had custom domain activated on their blog and https is on.

Note; This issue is peculiar to BLOGSPOT bloggers. Those using WordPress don’t have this issue, the Blogspot users are the ones facing this issue.

Today, many bloggers who started with BLOGSPOT have switched from blogspot to wordpress because of this issue.

The only positive you can take from this is  that except you are using Opera mini while connected to Glo, you will be unable to open sites hosted on blogger using any other web browser.

But this isn’t enough going forward because so many people out there make use of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Internet Explorer but it can be opened through these.

As a Blogger out their who is using blospot platform that is facing this same issue, I guess you might be wondering if this problem is fixable. Definitely, YES. It is fixable.
